Blood Diamond

Pretty good movie. Pretty graphic and slow in parts. Informative message. Had the required action, blood and violence to keep hubby's interest. I told him I'd be throwing away my daimond ring. NOT Hopefully acquired long before any of this, but who knows?

At the end of the movie they give info on how to buy diamonds that haven't been part of the Sierra Leone violence.

It was a hard movie to watch, but at the same time riveting. I really liked it. And Leonardo DiCaprio - well, he was just GREAT! You'd never even think he wasn't a native South African.

My son LOVES DiCaprio. Said he's this generation's Robert DeNiro. I have to agree. He's turning into such a versatile actor.
We saw it too...it was a graphic yet fantastic movie...I told Brian that he didnt have to buy me any more diamonds.........................................................................

Darcy, you are SUCH a humanitarian... :roll:
I would love to see it but honestly I HATE LEONARDO DECAPRIO!!!!! I saw a trailer for it and he had the most annoying accent, I'm wondering if I could get past that??????????????
Ginny, I dont like him either...but he was pretty good...he wasnt as annoying as I thought....

Steph, we all have to do our part ya know!
He makes a believer out of you. Like I said, you'd never think he wasn't a native South African.

Did either of you see The Departed? He played an intense part in that!
nope havent seen that....im lucky i saw blood diamonds...the last movie i saw with brian was war of the worlds.... 8O
We see lots of movies.

Our recommendations: pass on The Good Shepherd, and Casino Royale.

JMHO.
Oooh Casino Royale definately, one for the girls, instead of Ursula Andress or ?(forgot her name) stepping out from the ocean in a bikini, you have a macho man, back to a real James Bond also, rough around the edges and all MAN. :excited:

Still waiting to see Blood Diamond, only just been released here. :roll:

hahahaha!!!! I agree....what about tanzanite.....it's so purrtty!!!

I just saw this thread after I put up a post....eek...so here I am.

I loved Blood Diamond but could have done without all of that violence. I thought Leonardo Dicaprio's performance was really great (aside from the accent because I can't picture him talking that way)..... All in all I thought twice about my jewelry when it ended. It made me wonder about my jewelry...

I highly recommend renting that movie. It's no wonder Djimon Hounsou was nominated for an oscar.

I saw Departed a few weeks ago. I am also not a Leo fan, but thought his acting was very good.
